Nautical Weekend in San Diego
Because of the marathon of classwork and homework I’ve had over the week, I needed a break between studying, so we made it a Nautical weekend. On break between studies, we took a few hours to check out the Star of India, the HMS Surprise and several other ships in the Museum. The Star of India […]
Paso Robles Road Trip- Part III
Yep, we ended this road trip between Christmas and New Years in Paso Robles,,,,and we were pretty surprised as the place was slammed busy.

Getting a ticket might have been better! Jimmy Buffett continued his “I Don’t Know” tour last night at Humphrey’s by the Bay in San Diego. What […]
